The Gauntlet

Colter's Spire, as the obvious spire in the middle of the massif,  is not as high of quality rock as Colter's Rib. However, some of the climbing is very good and the summit is amazing. Pitch one climbs a corner to the arete with bolts and gear at 5.7. Pitch two continues on both sides of the arete at 5.7. Pitch three climbs left of the arete overtaking a couple of roofs on big holds, then comes back right 5.8. Pitch 4 has some loose rock, hence the name of the route. If you are adept in the Tetons, you will recognize this type of climb. Ends on a lofty summit.

Eight quickdraws and a single set of cams from .4 to #3.
